The Tale of the Body Thief - Lestat will return! Cruise too...

Interview with a Vampire is one of my favourites movies. And Tom is very good as Lestat. So... This news is just great!

I received what could be one of the best (unconfirmed) scoops ever from a B-D reader who'd like to be called 'King of Kong', "I work at --- and have it on good authority that United Artists is in talks to nab the rights to Anne Rice's The Tale of the Body Thief. There's speculation on my behalf, but UA = Tom Cruise, right? Might we be seeing Tom Cruise back as the Vampire Lestat? That would be pretty good stuff." I think his speculation fits my immediate thoughts, how cool would this be? What do you guys think, are we ready for another Lestat movie?

you have got to be kidding me...? the books were good, sure. but both movies blew dead dog. Cruise was the wrong choice for Lestat. everyone who has read Rice knows she wrote the part for Rutger Hauer (think back to Blade Runner Rutger - not modern Rutger). Cruise falls far from this idea. Though, Pitt was good, as usual. But wtf is a Spaniard doing as a young French man ?? Antonia Banderas is a good actor, but not for this role.

im not even going to talk about 'queen of the stupid' either....

sorry if im acting like a fan boy, because im really not, but this movie did nothing but disappoint me. Vampire movies are so over done... move on and get a new genre.
